Well, I have started to read those. AVID has been "shut mouth" about this too. Pointing to the "benefits" and being vague.

Here is the truth:



the full License agreement is here:

I suggest you download it not just read it online. Then you have a hard copy.

Those who don't see, do you see now?

This is bad for the users. Internet isn't guaranteed. So neither is your license.

Keep reading, because I am.
An internet connection requirement is to be expected.

What I'm more interested in is does Avid check every time you run the software or is it periodically? And if it's periodically, how often?

Adobe does the same thing, but Adobe only checks like once a month or something like that and I think every time you login your buffer is renewed. Idk...it's been a while.
